​FYI:  SCURF
Something that is causing a slight problem in growing sweet potatoes today is SCURF, a brownish black coloration on the outside skirt of the potato.  Scurf hurts the looks and sale of he potato but does not hurt the potato itself.  Some see this discoloration and quickly think it is condition of years ago that caused the entire crop to be lost, but the thought quickly passes when a light scratch removes the discolored area and exposes the beautiful color underneath.
